Jin's POV

"Why Joonie arm level up?"

He pointed to his arm cutely with confusion.

"That's where the spider bit you Joonie. The internet said to keep it leveled, to reduce the swelling"

He seemed to understand, and remembered more of what happened.

"Bad spider... Only wanted to say hi, and bad spider bit me..."

He whimpered with a pout.

His ears drooped at the thought of spider not wanting to be his friend.

I couldn't help but find it adorable that he wanted to be friends with the spider, but he still had a near death experience because of it.

"It's ok Joonie. It was just scared and thought that you were going to hurt it"

I tried to reassure him.

"But Joonie didn't wanna hurt it.."

Tears started to run down his face.

"I know you didn't Joonie. It's just a form of defense that it uses when it's scared. It didn't mean to hurt you"

I explained, wiping away his tears.

"Jinnie sure?"

He whimpered, starting to calm down.

"I'm sure Joonie"

I reassured him, as I placed a small kiss on his nose.

This earned me a giggle from him.

"What happen to spider?"

He asked, now concerned for his friend.

"Since it was a deadly spider, we had to send him away. But, we gave it your best regards, and made sure it knew how you felt"

I had to tell him something that would make him feel at peace, not that it was a lie.

I actually did do that, no matter how much Yoongi gave me the side eye about it, and called me a weird hyung...

"It otay! It be missed"

He gave me a warm smile and blushed a little.

I suddenly remembered that the others must be worried sick about Joonie!

"Oh! Joonie, do you want to go see the others?"

He nodded almost instantly at wanting to see his friends.

He looked very excited.

"Ok~. I'll take you to the bathroom first, and then we'll all hang out after that~"

I was excited too, come to think of it.

I got out of bed first, and carefully sat him up. I wanted to make sure he was ok before we left.

"You ok so far Joonie?"

I asked to confirm.

He waited a few seconds, and then looked up and me smiling.

"Okilly dokilly!"

He exclaimed excitedly.

With this confirmation, I put his arm over my shoulder and held him by his waist.

"Alrighty, to the bathroom~!"

I exclaimed enthusiastically.

"Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay~"

He cheered excitedly.

I took him to the bathroom and while he was using it, I went to go inform the others of his condition.

"You guys! Joonie is awake!"

Everyone looked at me with surprise and happiness.

"REALLY HYUNG?! IS HE REALLY OK?! WHERE IS HE?!"

Hoseok screamed, as he shook me by my shoulders.

"Calm down Hoseok! Let the man breathe, will ya?!"

Yoongi yelled, stopping him from shaking me.

"Oh.... Sorry hyung..."

He seemed very restless, but who could blame him?

"It's alright Hobi, I know how you feel. But Joonie is in the bathroom, and I came to warn all of you. It's nothing bad, but still"

They all looked at me with interest and confusion.

"What is it hyung?"

Jungkook asked, with his complete focus on me.

"He's still in little space, meaning he acts, thinks, and talks as a child. Don't say or do anything to offend him or make him upset. Remember, hybrids in little space can get very suicidal and depressed so watch what you say and do, understand?"

I said in a serious tone.

They all nodded in understanding. I really love Joonie, and I don't want to see him hurt, or even close to death. Not again. I'll do anything for Joonie.

"Good. Now, I'll be back. I'm going to go get Joonie"

I informed them, walking away.

☼☼☼

After warning the others, I went to go get Joonie.

To my surprise, he was already out of the bathroom and right near the stairs.

"Sorry I kept you waiting Joonie!"

I suddenly heard him sniffing, and heard soft whimpers.

"Joonie, what's wrong...?"

I asked cupping his face.

"It b-bad I in little s-space...?"

He asked in between whimpers.

He heard me scolding the others...

"Of course not, Joonie! You're perfect to us in big or little space. I just don't want anyone to hurt my kitty. You mean the world to me. I would do anything for you because I love you. You'd never be a burden to me, or any of us"

He looked at me, and slightly smiled wiping his eyes.

"Jinnie pwomise?"

"Jinnie promise"

I confirmed, nodding and wiping his eyes.

"Now let's go have fun with the others cutie~"

I cheered, booping his nose.

He giggled cutely at my actions.

"Otay!"

He seemed really happy now.

⚬2 Hours Later⚬
☼☼☼

After two hours, Joonie had returned to his normal state of mind.

"Sorry that I made you all worry about me..."

He apologized, looking down.

"It's alright, Joon. It's not your fault~"

Jimin reassured him.

"Yeah! I tried to make friends with an ant once. It didn't end well either, hehe..."

Taehyung admitted.

"It was no problem, hyung. We enjoyed caring for you!"

Jungkook exclaimed.

"We all really care about you Joonie"

Yoongi said petting Joonie's head, earning purrs from the younger.

"Cuuute~"

We all cooed.

☼☼☼

Suddenly, we heard a knock at the door, and I looked at the time on my clock.

Who would be at my apartment at 8 at night? I got up and asked who it was.

"Jin, open the door"

The voice sent chills down my spine.

"Y-Yoongi, please take Joonie upstairs, and hurry..."

I whispered, looking at my now confused kitty.

"And make sure that neither him or mini me come down until I say so.... Be sure to lock the door just in case...."

"Ok, but why hyung?"

Yoongi whispered.

"Yeah, why Jinnie?"

Joonie whispered, seeing that the situation was serious.

The knocks became more persistent. I took a deep breathe, and tried to stay as calm as possible. But I was filled with not only fear, but rage and hatred as well.

I looked at the door and back at them, as they all looked at me with worried expressions.

"It's him... I-It's my dad..."
